About El Quetzal Guatemalan Restaurant

El Quetzal Guatemalan Restaurant offers an authentic Guatemalan dining experience with its flavorful cuisine and welcoming atmosphere. The service is excellent, with friendly staff who are happy to accommodate language barriers. The menu features a variety of traditional dishes, including Carne Adobada, empanadas, and pupusas. The hand-made tortillas and fresh, hot tamales are particularly noteworthy. While the atol de elote may not be to everyone's taste, the hilaches (shredded beef) and pepian (chicken) stews are praised for their rich, complex flavors. The restaurant's colorful decor and Guatemalan art create a vibrant, family-oriented ambiance. Although there were a few minor issues with cleanliness and hair in the food, the overall experience is described as pleasant, with ample street parking available. Visitors recommend trying the beans, guacamole, and homemade salsa, which are standout items on the menu.
